Personally Interviewed

Our tutors go through a rigorous selection process, having been interviewed to assess their teaching skills and subject knowledge. They have extensive tutoring experience with a track record of success, helping students achieve their academic goals.

Tutoring Experience

I have extensive experience tutoring GCSE Physics, helping students build a solid foundation in core topics such as mechanics, electricity, and thermodynamics. At Cambridge, I supervised undergraduates across eight subjects, honing my ability to adapt to varying academic levels. I have also prepared students for competitive exams, including Physics Olympiads, and mentored applicants for Cambridge, ensuring they excel academically.

Tutoring Approach

My approach focuses on identifying gaps in understanding and addressing them methodically. In GCSE Physics, I emphasise conceptual clarity and problem-solving skills by using past papers and targeted quizzes to track progress. I encourage students to visualise problems, connect them to real-world applications, and approach questions systematically, fostering confidence and a deeper grasp of the subject.

Testimonials

Thanks as well for taking the time and effort to make sure that we understand all the concepts covered in the course intuitively; I thoroughly enjoyed all the supervisions thus far!
